Stardew Valley‘s massive version 1.5 update is nearly ready according to Eric Barone, the game’s creator. He briefly discussed the update in a tweet yesterday when he explained that the amount of content in the update necessitates a ton of polishing and bug fixes before it can be ready. While he did not hint at a release date for the long-awaited Stardew Valley update, it appears that we’ll have it on our hands in the near-ish future, barring any development shake-ups.
the 1.5 update is in the "home stretch", it's a very big update so there is a lot of polishing and bug fixing necessary to make sure it's ready. It'll be very fun to share it with all of you in the near future. I think you'll be really happy and surprised with all the new stuff!

Barone has spent most of 2020 working on the next – and possibly final – major Stardew Valley update, packing in all sorts of content from local co-op to the ability to move your bed. Additionally, Stardew Valley version 1.5 packs in lots of late-game content (though Barone says that a number of new options and features in the game might justify another full playthrough for interested players).
